Filter by:The purpose of this study is to further evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of the Biocor and Biocor Supra Valves.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Formula Balloon-Expandable Stent in treatment of renal artery stenosis.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the DIAM Spinal Stabilization System as a method of treating patients with symptoms of degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis at a single level from L2 to L5.
The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the performance of the Optimized FLAIR™ Delivery System.
The purpose of this study is to find out if an approved medicine that is used to lower cholesterol called Lipitor can slow or stop progressive narrowing of the aortic heart valve in patients with a condition called aortic stenosis. Patients who have aortic stenosis who volunteer for this study will take Lipitor for 2 years and will undergo a brief exam by a physician, labwork to measure cholesterol, and a routine heart ultrasound (sound picture of the heart) at the start of the study and every 6 months, stopping at 2 years.
To detect coronary artery disease by both coronary and carotid artery imaging and myocardial perfusion imaging using a new low mechanical index real time system.
One hundred patients with moderate to severe asymptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) will be asked to exercise on a treadmill. NT-pro-BNP levels will be drawn before and after exercise. Changes in NT-pro-BNP levels will be correlated to outcomes at one year. In the pilot phase an additional 10 control subjects without AS will be enrolled to document the control response of NT-pro-BNP elevations with exercise.
This study aims to evaluate mitomycin C as an adjunct to endoscopic treatment of esophageal strictures. This is a crossover, controlled, clinical trial in which children with esophageal stricture will be randomized in two groups to receive either topical mitomycin or no additional treatment during standard esophageal dilation session.
The purpose of this study is to compare two surgery methods on lumbar spinal stenosis: minimal invasive decompression and X-stop. It is a prospective randomized multicenter study including patients with lumbar spinal stenosis on one or two levels, and neurogenic intermittent claudication. Effect assessment will include measures of pain and self-evaluated health condition, a full economical evaluation, and areal measurements (MR imaging and roentgen analyses)
The proposed study will investigate the efficacy of the peripheral cutting balloon (PBC) compared to the high pressure balloon in dilating venous stenosis in hemodialysis fistulas. 2. SPECIFIC AIMS Study endpoints will be: Primary Endpoint 1. Primary and assisted patency at 6 months Secondary Endpoints: 1. Procedure effectiveness/residual stenosis 2. Procedure-related complications 3. Primary patency and primary assisted patency 12 months 4. Secondary patency at 6 and 12 months 5. Number/type of secondary interventions.
